When it was ascertained, however, that forty-five counties in Western Virginia had de- | termined to remain in the Union, secessionists ignored their own doctrine and resolyedto coerce these counties out of the Union into the Sonth- ern Confederacy. Generals Lee, Floyd, Wise and others were seni to coerce them into submia- sidn to the Confederate Government, with what success, however, is well known to the Ameri- can pegple, . If South Carolina, or seven States had the legit- imate right to secede from the Federal Goyern- ment, contrary to the wish a nd interest of all the other States in the Union, by the same parity of reasoning, *had not the counties in Western Vir- ginia the legitimate right to secede from the re- maining portion of the territory of Virginia ?— The Federal Government is composed of all the states and territories in -the Union, and Virginia is composed of the ccunties embracedin her ge- opraphical boundaries ; hence, if one or Seven States had the Constitutional right, uncondition- ally to secede from the Federal Government, any county, or any number of counties in any State has the constitutional right, uncondition- ally to secede from any one of the States. The example being set, and. the precede at, approved andestablished, the whole country atonce be- comes disintegrated, and, the Southern Confed- eracy hes not the shadow of security for her poe and duration, even should she gain er independence.

Let us see: : The action of the Convention was yet to come before the people. All were Urged'to go to the polls and vote, and present a bold front to the North, and this would prevent warand secure peace. Those who had been union men, if they voted the secession ticket, and professed conver- sion to the glorious doctrine of secession, were to be marked as hypocrites—if they remained at home and refused te vote; they were traitors and should be spetied—a seal of black reprobation was to be stamped on them and their children through all coming time If they voted for the Union, they were abolitionists, and ought to be drivea out of stationed is most of the cities and towns in the State. Fredericks burg was litterally filled with them. ; y The day of election camo, and wa had doter- mined not to vote, nor go.to the Court House at all’; during the day, however, one of our paem- ident citizen calle don us and invited us out « our office, to tell us frankly, candidly, and most sincerely asa truv@ friend, that unlesa we went and voted, our standing, influence, aud all our prog. pects even for living in the eommanity, were blight 4d, and blasted, ard wa would be called a teaitoi, and a tory, ind that in years to’ coma ft would be thrown up to our children, &c., ke, like if wag in the oldRevolutionarywar.Knowingthat our vote could effect nothing either the ane way or the other, go far as the destiny of Virginia was concerned, late in the evening we went to the Court House; and stated te the Commissioners that we were no convort Lo secession, that we dogs ped secession, but that we were in Virgitia, aad would go with Virginia, and that if they consid- ered this a vote they could take it. Inimediate. ly, they called ont our name and cried out “ratl- fieation.’” Since tha day of election for the ratification of Virginia’s secession, what have we either said or done to cause any one, However, stupid, to think thatwe had changed our viewson the subject of Secessibn? Have we delivered any secession speeches? No Have we prayed aay secession prayers? God knows we bave net. Have we argued the cause of secession? No. Have we asked for any office in the Southern Confederacy} Ne. Have we not uniformly said to ail persons, at all times, and in all places, at home and abroad on the streets, in the stores, and everpwliere, and always, that we despised secession? And that because we felt a devotion forthe South, which HO Vilnined secessiomst could opposed secession. What have wedone? We have been slander- ously reported, as having -held secret Uniom meetings for the purpose of ploting treason against the Southern Confederacy. This is in- famously false. We have been treated with in- dignity, and,attemp‘s have been made by certaia characters to insult us, who were themselves be- neath contempt. We have been slandered at home and abroad, simply because we used our best efforts fo save the South’ from ruin. And now we are threatened with a rope, if ever the time comes, and an opportunity is offered. What have'we done? We opened 2 privat boarding house last winter as'a matter of neces- sity to keep frem starvation. We treated the poor soidiers the very best we could, we did this feel; therefore wa te by attempting to overthrow the government frem a faetious dispositon, er from ill-will to the persons in power, er from an ambitious desire to Virginia, and the whole South.” It was “likewise urged, that begause the vote because we were sorry for them.
